It is so much easier when you have someone to do it with. My husband is really supportive and will go on any eating plan that I chose. Stick with it and, keep each other strong!

Alcohol is metabolized differently than other foods and beverages. Under normal conditions, your body gets its energy from the calories in carbohydrates, fats and proteins that need to be slowly digested in the stomach—but not when alcohol is present. When alcohol is consumed, it gets special privileges and needs no…

[/quote] I thought the same thing when I read it. It's easy for him to say since he likes water![

quote] Full on rant? Are you serious? Re-read my question: I wasn't saying I wouldn't be open to drinking straight water, but was questioning whether I need to drink water in ADDITION to tea. Maybe lay off the attitude a little. I'm new here and have encountered only kind, inspirational people, and can't understand why you…

WAY to go!!!! Hard to do without your work-out partner!

I got up at 6:00am and got in a 40 minute work-out at the Y before my doctor appointmen!

Don't say, tomorrow, I will get back on track. So you blew one meal, you are ALWAYS one MEAL away from getting back in the game!!!!!!!

I HATE water but, I bought a Tervis Tumbler with a straw. I keep ice water by me at all times and I drink tons! Not sure why?

You have to consider the source with people like that. I posted a memmorial slide show of my Nephew, Chris, that died at 36 and some jerk wrote a post that said, "I'm Chris and, I'm NOT dead". Can you imagne being SO insensative?

We were just having this same conversation at work today.

Good for you! I went to my grandson's 2nd birthday party this weekend. I ate a sliced apple while they all gorged on pizza and, I brought my own diet cake with cool whip and Fat free frozen yougurt. Only 270 calories(for the cake & frozen yogurt!) as opposed to the maybe 500-700 I would have eaten! I was totally satisfied,…

Weight Watcher's says, "If you're going to cheat, cheat with protien". It takes your body more calories to digest protien than any other food!

Glad to know, I'm not the only one with this issue. My protien is always too high yet, I'm 200-300 calories under. All of my protien comes from good sources, Salmon, chicken breast, protien shakes, etc. I'm losing inches and about 1 lb per week so I think, I'm o.k?

you might consider, "It's not what you are eating, it's what's eating you". Might be something deeper here. as for having to "do something for life". If you were a diabetic, would you not take insulin for life to survive? Don't think of it as a life sentence, think of it as something that may very well save your life!…

That is one pound per week which is what is recomended, if you want to keep the weight off. Give yourself a break and keep up the good work!

I use sugar-free Singles to go packets. My favorites are the Hawian Punch, orange is the best!

I tell myself, "I could have that candy if I wanted to but, I choose not to". Remmeber, "A moment on the lips, forever on the hips!"

It is hard when people poop-out on you. It's so much easier to have a work-out buddy. I was working out on my own. When my friend found out, she offered to come with me. That lasted about two weeks. Now, it's one excuse after the other. I didn't go for about a week waiting on her. I gave up and , I've been back regular for…

I'm glad you joined. It's always nice to have people to discuss like issues. Good Luck on your progress and remember, "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels." :smile:
